MSC Software Corporation is a global leader in helping product manufacturers advance their engineering methods with simulation software and services. Propelled by President Kennedy's 1962 challenge to reach the moon, it pioneered the structural engineering simulation software NASTRAN, an application that helped NASA design and test the Apollo rocket and virtually all space vehicles in the ensuing years. More recently, MSC's technology was used to safely land the Curiosity rover on the surface of Mars.
Today, MSC's products are used at companies from Boeing to Airbus, from Toyota to BMW, from Mitsubishi to Samsung and many more.
WHAT: MSC will present new methodologies for materials modeling and analysis, techniques for optimizing the design process, and strategies for making better products using materials simulation.
The challenges faced by companies in today's marketplace have made materials selection and design a key part of product development. New materials such as plastics and reinforced composite materials are used to replace or reinvent components and, in some cases, have even made restructuring and redesign of entire products necessary. Analytical tools that enable the virtual design and optimization of material performance, along with the capturing and storing of material data across its lifecycle, have become critical to reducing the costs and time associated with materials development.
MSC spokespersons presenting include:
- Matthew Kokaly, Ph.D., Aerospace Solutions Manager
- Bob Schmitz, Business Development Manager
- Leo Kilfoy, General Manager, Engineering Lifecycle Management Business Unit
Topics to be addressed include:
- Materials selection and design
- Optimizing the design process
- Improving your final product through materials simulation
